Rylan returns to host a brand-new season of Paramount+’s boldest dating show, and things are about to get very revealing. Dating Naked UK is back for its second season, promising even more steamy encounters, shocking twists, and bare-all honesty as ten new singles ditch their clothes in search of true connection. The reality hit premieres on August 29, with a first look trailer and key art now live.
This season, the stakes are higher than ever with a £50,000 prize up for grabs, adding fuel to an already flammable mix of romance, drama, and raw vulnerability. Once again set against a tropical paradise, the show strips away more than just clothes, challenging the contestants to open up emotionally in their pursuit of love.
Host Rylan teased:
“Dating Naked is back! This time you know what you’re signing up for, or at least you think you do. We’re taking it up a notch, working even harder to help our brilliant cast find their perfect match and battle it out for a £50,000 prize pot. I can’t wait for you to meet our brand new daters, and maybe a familiar face or two…”
Commissioned as a 10 x 60-minute series by Paramount+ and MTV Entertainment Studios, the show is produced by Nest Productions, with executive production from Iestyn Barker, Jaime Brannan, Amy Boyle, and Craig Orr. Direction of production is led by Stew Batt.
